6 Chapter 5 Night Talk

Xiao Chengjun walked straight over without asking the palace maid to serve him. The room was brightly lit with candles, as bright as day. Lou Jing was holding a big pillow, and the bright red satin reflected his pale face slightly red, making him look very safe.

I heard that Lou Jing's grandfather doted on him very much. In order to help him support his appearance early, he had a crown ceremony at the age of fifteen. The gilt crown with rubies inlaid was still neatly worn on his head, not messy at all, and the two golden tassels and crows were

The long green hair was mixed together and spread out smoothly. A few strands of hair slipped onto her cheeks at some point, covering her beautiful eyes.

Xiao Chengjun stretched out his hand and stopped suddenly half an inch away from the strand of long hair. What was he going to do? His heart froze, and he curled up his fingers as if he had been burned, and slowly put his hand on his face expressionlessly.

Afterwards, I secretly reflected that I should not have been easily deceived by beauty.

What the prince, who was introspecting, did not notice was that the eyes hidden behind his hair had opened through a tiny gap the moment he stepped into the room.

Due to the vigilance she developed on the battlefield, Lou Jing woke up the moment the prince opened the door, but was too lazy to move. According to etiquette, the bride must sit upright on the bed before the groom comes back. If she falls asleep early regardless of her husband, then

Thinking that not paying enough attention to her husband would make her husband unhappy. Lou Jing just lay down and wanted to see how the strict Crown Prince would react. Unexpectedly, he saw such a shocking scene.

A flash of light quickly flashed through his half-closed eyes. It seemed that His Highness the Crown Prince was not as dissatisfied with men as his father was...

His grandfather taught him since he was a child that except for his closest relatives and the ones he loves, everything else can be used. The so-called use means getting the greatest reward at the lowest cost. So since this face can be used now, why not make more money with it?

The benefits of...

Lou Jing slowly opened her eyes, paused for a moment, and immediately sat up, "I was sleepy for a while, so I fell asleep. I hope Your Highness will forgive me." He stood up too hard, which affected the injury on his back, and he couldn't help but frown slightly.

.

"It's okay," Xiao Chengjun responded lightly, "call someone to change clothes."

Lou Jing would not object. Not long after, Xunxia and Yingqiu came in followed by two maids.

Xun Xia looked worriedly at the royal wedding of his heir apparent. The bride had to hide in the tent and change into regular clothes before coming out, but Lou Jing didn't seem to have any intention of avoiding it.

Xiao Chengjun glanced at him and said nothing. They were both men, so there was no need to talk about those false etiquette. He let the palace maid take off his crown clothes on the spot, revealing his apricot-yellow underwear.

Waving his hand for the palace maid to retreat, the two of them sat on the bed together. When the door was closed, Lou Jing leaned on the big pillow again.

Xiao Chengjun frowned, "How come it's so badly injured?" Normally, when people do anything, it's nothing particularly serious, and it usually doesn't hurt their muscles and bones, but seeing him fainting today, Xiao Chengjun realized that this injury might not be that simple.

.

Why is it so heavy? Because Lou Jianyu felt that his hands were weak, so he asked the guards to move his hands. Lou Jing just smiled and said, "Your Highness, I didn't ask for an imperial doctor, so it will heal more slowly."

Xiao Chengjun was silent for a moment, then took out a small lacquered box engraved with plum blossoms and entwined branches from the small cabinet on the bed and handed it to him, "This medicine is the anti-accumulation and blood-stasis ointment provided by Taiyuan Hospital. You can use it now. If you return it,

If it doesn’t get better, please call the imperial doctor.”

Lou Jing lowered his eyes. She didn't expect that he had thought so carefully and prepared all the medicine for his injuries. The smile on his face couldn't help but deepen a little, and he stuffed the box back into the prince's hand, "It's on my back, I'm sorry."

I can't even apply it, so I dare to ask His Highness to help."

"You..." Xiao Chengjun was stunned for a moment. No one had ever dared to instruct him like this. Lou Zhuoyu was too bold. Before the prince could rebuke him, the person over there had already taken off his clothes.

, took off his underwear and lay down obediently.

Lou Jing looks a little thin because of her pale face. She is not thin at all when she takes off her clothes. She has broad shoulders and narrow waist, and well-proportioned muscles. She is like a leopard ready to go, full of explosive power. However, her smooth body is now covered with

The purple and red scars looked really dazzling.

Xiao Chengjun sighed, that's all. Since he wanted to treat Corporal Xian, he had to show some sincerity. He dug some grease on his fingertips and slowly applied it to the injured area. It was as if a layer of silk was wrapped on the steel knife.

It feels firm and smooth, making people want to put it down.

"You are the only legitimate son in the Lou family. After marrying into the East Palace, there will be no one to inherit the title. Why would Duke An Guo do this?" Realizing that he was a little out of control tonight, Xiao Chengjun thought it might be caused by drinking too much royal wine, so he said something else.

Calm down your mind.

"The prince married his wife, and it only took half a month to write the three books and six etiquettes. Why did the emperor do this?" Lou Jing did not answer, but asked back, turning her head to look at the prince's expression.

The two looked at each other for a moment, understanding each other tacitly.

"You and I are both in trouble, but I can help you with your predicament." Xiao Chengjun's tone was neither urgent nor slow, and every word was loud and clear, as if every word he said was worth ten thousand dollars, making people feel compelled to

convince.

Lou Jing squinted her eyes, smiled, rolled up her underwear to her legs, and lay back down again, "His Royal Highness is the crown prince of the country, and after I am loyal and good, I will naturally be His Highness's ministers."

This is considered a preliminary agreement.

Xiao Chengjun nodded slightly and dug out another piece of ointment. If someone else were to be his crown princess, it would be fine as long as she did not cause trouble, but Lou Jing was different. Not to mention this person's previous reputation, his actions tonight alone have already shown that this person

He is definitely not a thing in the pond. If he is willing to help me, it will be a great help.

His Highness the Crown Prince was satisfied and turned his attention to treating the injury.

The injuries on his back were the second worst, and the most serious ones were on his thighs. When Xiao Chengjun saw those legs, he couldn't help but take a breath. How cruel does this father have to be to beat his son to death?

"Father has never suffered, so he doesn't know how much damage will be caused by such a beating." Lou Jing lay on her stomach, without any resentment in her tone, as if she was saying "Father can't tell the difference between leeks and wheat seedlings."

Xiao Chengjun looked at him steadily, "When I ascend the throne, I will... let you stay or go." I wanted to say, "I'll divorce you and return your title to you," but looking at those eyes as bright as stars, the words came to his lips.

Then he turned around and thought, if he was still willing to be his queen at that time, then...there would be nothing wrong with it.

Lou Jing smiled slightly, "Thank you, Your Highness."

After applying the medicine, it was already getting late, and they had to go to the Ancestral Temple to worship tomorrow, so there was no time to delay. The two of them said nothing more and called the palace servants to put out the candles.

Lou Jing was injured and could only lie down. Fortunately, the medicine dried quickly, otherwise he wouldn't even be able to cover himself with the quilt. Xiao Chengjun lay down on the bed, adhering to the principle of "eating without talking or sleeping without talking", and quietly kept silent.

Say something.

On the wedding night, the dragon and phoenix candles could not be extinguished, and the bright red curtain was still bright outside. Lou Jing turned his head to face the bed and closed his eyes. The past two days had almost exhausted him to death, leaving a person with serious injuries

Doing so much detailed work is really torture. Whoever violates military discipline in the future will be punished with a military stick before going to the kitchen to choose food!

The room fell silent, except for the beeping sound of candles.

Xiao Chengjun couldn't sleep because he drank. He turned sideways and stared at Lou Jing's face for a moment. This beautiful face was sickly pale, like glazed white porcelain, which was even more irritating because it was fragile.

She felt pity for her, and couldn't help but slowly reached out and brushed away the messy hair on his temples. He was already his wife, and as long as he didn't betray her, she would fulfill her husband's responsibility and treat him well.

When His Highness the Prince fell asleep, Lou Jing, who should have been asleep, opened his eyes.

Lou Jing looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who was so well behaved even when he was sleeping. He found it interesting and couldn't help but move closer to Xiao Chengjun. The looks of the royal family were undoubtedly outstanding, and Xiao Chengjun's appearance was even better among the princes.

However, his noble aura usually conceals his own beauty, making people dare not look directly at him.

After sniffing hard, there was only a faint smell of alcohol and no milky smell in the memory. Lou Jing couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. If she smelled that smell, she might think of her childhood. She reluctantly held the prince's hand and recalled it.

Little rabbit buns made by my mother.

If her mother was still alive, she would definitely not agree to her marrying into the East Palace, right?

After a good night's sleep, before dawn the next day, a little eunuch called softly outside the door.

Xiao Chengjun opened his eyes and was about to stand up, but found that his right hand was tightly held by the person next to him. He felt like he was scratched by something. He couldn't help but slightly raised the corners of his lips and shook the hands they held together, "

It’s time to get up.”

"Huh?" Lou Jing responded vaguely, yawned and opened his eyes, struggled to get up, and slowly shook his sore neck.

"Why do your hands only have thin calluses on the middle finger?" Xiao Chengjun wanted to ask why his hands were so smooth and traceless. Aren't the hands of generals supposed to be as rough as sand? But the question came out a bit frivolous.

I had to change my words.

Lou Jing raised her eyebrows, and then realized that she was still holding his hand and not letting go, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't seem to let go. She couldn't help but feel teasing, and slowly moved closer to him, saying in his ear: "Although I

It’s useless, you still have to learn some archery skills, right?”

"Ahem..." Xiao Chengjun coughed dryly, let go of his hand, and said seriously, "It's getting late, get up and get dressed."

"Yes." Lou Jing knew it was okay to give up, so she agreed with a smile.

The first person to enter was a senior eunuch in his forties, followed by six maids and two junior eunuchs.

"My servant Chang En, congratulations to the prince, the princess is very happy." The old eunuch didn't have too much flattery on his face, he smiled very appropriately, and his slightly chubby face looked very kind.

"This is Chang En, the eunuch in charge of the East Palace." Xiao Chengjun whispered to Lou Jing.

Lou Jing nodded, sat on the bed and knelt down from Chang En, and rewarded him with a purse embroidered with gold thread, containing two taels of gold beads. She raised her hand to support him and said: "Eunuch Chang, please get up. From now on."

I also need to ask my father-in-law for more guidance."

Chang En kept saying that he didn't dare and accepted the reward from the Crown Princess.

Then came the four maids next to Xiao Chengjun, Zizhen, Zitao, Ruoyan, and Ruoshuang. They were all dignified in appearance, and none of them stood out. Lou Jing thought that His Highness the Crown Prince was really serious, so he rewarded each with five taels of silver beads.

, the four maids bowed their heads and stepped aside, lowering their eyebrows and keeping their eyes very polite.

Xunxia and Yingqiu kowtowed to Xiao Chengjun, and Xiao Chengjun also rewarded them with red purses, each containing five taels of silver melon seeds.

Anshun, Xiao Chengjun's personal eunuch, looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, but he was very calm. Compared with that, the other eunuch next to him who was of similar age was much more lively.

"This is Le Xian. From now on, he will serve the Crown Princess," Chang En said with a smile, "You can use it for two days first. If it doesn't go well with you, the slave will change it for you at any time."

"Young Lexian, I have met the Crown Princess." After Chang En finished speaking, Lexian happily kowtowed to Lou Jing and accepted the reward happily.
